Iteration Cycle Lab Report

We conducted an iteration lab, where we were supposed to do 5 different iterations to our coaster car. But we didn’t have enough time to complete all of the iterations. But we successfully completed 2 of the iterations. For our first iteration we replaced rubber tires to both sets of wheels. We recorded 3 trials and the veer of each trial. This iteration had a good impact on our coaster car because the distance was so high and the veer was average. So we decided to keep this iteration. For our second iteration, we decided take the 2 back tires out. So for this iteration, we only had 2 rubber tires to the front wheels of our coaster car. We repeated the same procedure that we followed for the first iteration. We did 3 trials and the veer of each trial, which was least expected for our coaster car.
We would like to keep the first iteration we made because the coaster car was faster and went farther from using the 4 rubber tires to the back and front wheels of our coaster car. Others may not agree with this because it really depends on their car. The way they first created/designed their car affects on …show more content…
I would like to explain those 2 iterations. For our first iteration, we added rubber tires to both sets of our wooden wheels. Trial 1: 1,445 centimeters as the distance for our car and the veer of 180 centimeters. Trial 2: 455 centimeters as the distance and 190 centimeters as the veer. Trial 3: 2,400 as the distance for our coaster car and 175 centimeters as the veer. For our second iteration, we put 2 rubber tires to the 2 front wheels of our coaster car. Trial 1: we had 1400 centimeters as the distance and 310 centimeters as the veer. Trial 2: we had 500 centimeters as the distance and 50 centimeters as the veer. Trial 3: we had 828 for the distance and 43 centimeters as the veer. The second iteration didn’t really help our coaster car so we decided to keep the first
